"temple"
"My lord, you're joking." Yu Cheng almost missed the point.
"Crack, snap, snap."
"Well said, reward." Li Chen applauded, and took out a gold horseshoe from his bosom and threw it into the teahouse.
"Boom."
The sound of the golden horseshoe falling to the ground sounded, and the people around were suddenly stunned, and all eyes turned to Li Chen.
Listening to books in teahouses on the side of the road, I was happy to listen to it, and it is common to reward one or two gold coins, but this time, I don’t see it once in ten or eight years.
Could it be that this is the legendary man with a lot of money and the stupid son of a landlord.
Everyone put their eyes on Li Chen. At this time, Li Chen did not enter the tea shed, but stood outside.The heavy snow fell on his fox fur, making him look extravagant.
"Thank you, sir, for the reward." The storyteller hurriedly thanked him.
"Is there anything else I want to hear, this old man is making an exception and I'm telling the old man." The storyteller stuffed the gold horseshoe into his arms and licked his face.
A storyteller who sells art sells both art and face, and people who value face cannot do this business.
After pondering for a moment, Li Chen said, "There's nothing I want to hear. Let me ask you, old man, do you think Yucheng is the best, or Lu Bu is the best?"
"This is of course Yucheng. When Lu Bu became famous, he was much older than Yucheng. And Yucheng was only in his twenties, so he has a long way to go." The storyteller replied without any hesitation.
As soon as the storyteller finished speaking, Li Chen immediately asked again: "Yu Cheng is such a hero, but he is under Xuzhou Mu Li Chen's command, so this Li Chen is a famous master"
Unexpectedly, Li Chen didn't finish talking here, the storyteller sighed and said: "Hey, talking about this old man makes my heart ache. Such a brave general in the world, but he has invested in a lord who is greedy for money and lustful. His lord is greedy for money and lustful." Said that he still loves his wife very much, he really is the same as that Cao ah."
As soon as the storyteller finished speaking, Li Chen's face turned dark, wishing he could take his gold horseshoe back from his arms.
Damn it, old stuff, I am a piece of gold in love, I hired you to scold me.
Slip away, slip away, it's so embarrassing.
What the hell, it was a bad start. When I first entered Luoyang, I had a hard time at the storyteller's place.
Luo Yangxing sent someone to buy a house for Li Chen in Luoyang City a long time ago. Not to mention the size of the house, the decoration inside is quite magnificent.Not to mention the good house, the most important thing is the good neighbors.All in all, Luo Yangxing knew that Li Chen would definitely like it very much.
A group of people walked from the outer city to the inner city, and the house that Luo Yangxing bought happened to be in the inner city.The further you go in, the more magnificent it becomes.There are many large mansions everywhere, and it is obvious that the people who live here are either high-ranking officials or dignitaries.
Not long after, they arrived at the house that Luo Yangxing bought.The gold-plated plaque of Nuo Da, with the two big characters of Li Fu written on it.
Li Chen looked at his neighbors, although his house is not small, but he said that the entrance hall is much simpler.The plaque of the Cai Mansion on the door is also an ordinary wooden plaque, but the handwriting of these two characters can be seen as a calligrapher at first glance.
Li Chen pointed to the Cai Mansion and asked, "Who's next door?"
"The next door is the residence of Cai Yong, the left central commander of the dynasty." Luo Yangxing replied.
"Cai Yong, did you learn from everyone at that time?" Li Chen said, this is the father of that talented girl Cai Ji.
"Is Cai Yan at home?" Li Chen asked without knowing why.
Luo Yangxing looked like I knew you would ask this question, and then hurriedly replied: "Last year, Cai Yan married Wei Zhongdao of Hebei Province, but who knew that Wei Zhongdao died before entering the bridal chamber. The Wei family He kicked him out of the house on the pretext that Cai Yan was unknown, and now Cai Yan is in Cai's mansion." Luo Yangxing had already investigated everything clearly.
He chose this neighbor specially for Li Chen, and Luo Yangxing is very good at doing what he likes.
"Cough cough."
"Actually, it doesn't matter who I live as a neighbor. I mainly love learning."
"I asked this because I simply admired Cai Yan's talent. I should visit him or her some other day." Li Chen saw that everyone looked at him with strange eyes, coughed a few times, and explained.
"Understood, understood." Everyone nodded in agreement.
Even though he said that, he still looked at Li Chen with the look of "I believe you a ghost, you old man."
Everyone secretly slandered, your visit on another day should be another day, another day, and a visit is a visit, right?And it should be in the middle of the night, so climb the wall of someone's house to visit.
Chapter 125 Visiting Jia Xu Late at Night
In Luoyang at this time, under the superficial prosperity, it can be said that there is an undercurrent.The grouped Xiliang army can be regarded as an important warlord in the world, but if they get into a mess by themselves, it will only be the result of a collapsed house.
Li Que got Dong Zhuo's disease, but he didn't have Dong Zhuo's life.In fact, he, Li Que, not only does not have Dong Zhuo's life, he has neither Dong Zhuo's ability nor Dong Zhuo's prestige.
Li Que wanted to unify the Xiliang Army and hold all the big and small matters of the Xiliang Army in his own hands, but he did not have Dong Zhuo's prestige and ability.
Are Li Que's men talented?No, there is.
Poisoner Jia Xu, the famous poisoner Jia Xu is under Li Que's command.Can't Jia Xu understand this?On the contrary, Jia Xuhe understood, how could Li Que be able to convince the public.If God wants to make people die, they must first want to make people crazy.Jia Xu was very good at protecting himself, he knew that Li Que was about to die, so even though he saw through everything, he didn't say anything or do anything.
Li Que was hard to convince in the Xiliang army, and he insisted on killing Fan Chou a few days ago.People in the Xiliang army have long been panicked. The reason why there is no riot is because the dragons have no leader and are scattered.These small groups and forces in the Xiliang Army are waiting for a leader. There is no doubt that this person is Guo Bang, the number two figure in Luoyang of the Xiliang Army.
However, Guo Si is not very courageous, he has not made up his mind to turn against Li Que, and it is precisely because of this that Luoyang has not made a fuss.However, just because there is no chaos now does not mean that there will be no chaos in the future. Li Chen couldn't figure out when Luoyang would become chaotic, so he used the most stupid but also the most practical method and waited for the rabbit.
Li Chen stayed with Luoyang for the time being, except for walking around the city from time to time, he didn't go out much on weekdays.In a blink of an eye, the New Year has passed.The trajectory of history also entered 194 AD from 195 AD.
Luoyang, Li Mansion.
"Master Dian, the news you want." Luo Yangxing handed over a secret report respectfully.
In this secret report is the news that Li Chen wants.What news does Li Chen want?This is the news of the famous poisoner Jia Xu.
Crouching Dragon Zhuge Liang, Ghost Talent Guo Fengxiao, Poison Shi Jia Xu In the era of the Eastern Han Dynasty and the Three Kingdoms, not to mention whether the name of this poison warrior is good or bad, but they are indeed figures that are known as Crouching Dragon and Ghost Talent.
Jia Xu made great contributions to the fact that Li Que and Guo Si occupied Luoyang and hijacked Han Xiandi and Wu Baiguan. At this time, his position in the Xiliang army can be said to be only under Li Que and Guo Si.If he wants to get the most benefit in the next incident, then Jia Xu must be someone who needs to fight for it.
Luoyang is calm on the surface, but in fact it is precarious.Jia Xu is an old fox who is very good at self-preservation, he has smelled this wind early on, and these days he is pretending to be sick in the mansion all day long, and even Li Que doesn't go anywhere much.
"Jia Xu wants to run?" Li Chen read the secret report in his hand and said slowly.
According to the records in the secret report, Jia Xu has asked Li Que to resign three times in a row in recent months.
Jia Xu's excuse for resigning for the first time was to visit her mother's grave, which was rejected by Li Yan.
Jia Xu's excuse for resigning for the second time was that he wanted to go to Huayin to visit his friend Duan Yan, the guard of Huayin.
Yesterday's resignation was the third time. After Jia Xu pretended to be sick for a while, he sent someone to resign from Li Que.The excuse this time is that my asthma is getting worse and I want to go to Nanyang to visit a famous doctor.
Jia Xu asked Li Que to resign one after another, but Li Que refused one after another.Li Que is not stupid, he knows Jia Xu's talent. It can be said that the Xiliang army was able to occupy Luoyang and hold Emperor Han Xian and the Minister of Chaozhongwu under the guise of Jia Xu's plan.
Li Que is not stupid, he can't let Jia Xu go, if Jia Xu leaves, if he goes to Guo Bang, it will be a great disadvantage to him.Because of this, Li Que refuted Jia Xu's resignation several times.
Li Chen doesn't know if Jia Xu is really sick, but it's very clear that Jia Xu probably really wants to run away from Li Chen now.
After reading the secret report in his hand, Li Chen decided to meet Jia Xu for a while.Since this poisonous man wanted to run away, it meant that he no longer had any hope for these reckless men from the Xiliang Army.
Jia Xu is different from others. Jia Xu doesn't have any lofty ambitions. This person seems to be the first one to sign up. He always puts his life first. No matter how important things are, self-protection is not as important.
If judging from the history of the previous life, after Jia Xu left Li Que, his next target should be Zhang Xiu. It was not until Zhang Xiu was defeated by Cao Cao that Jia Xu took refuge in Cao Cao.
After meeting Jia Xu for a while, Li Chen decided to meet this famous poisoner after much deliberation.
Li Chen's house has a very good terrain, and it was originally a place where dignitaries lived.Therefore, the distance between Li Chen's mansion and Jia Xu's mansion is not very far.
Although a curfew is enforced at night in Luoyang, the main area of the curfew is still the outer city.People living in the inner city are all high-ranking officials and dignitaries, and they are also rich in aristocratic families. It is normal for them to visit each other at night, have dinner, listen to songs and dances, and play Russian roulette.
In any era, there will always be a privileged class, so the curfew will not affect the night life of these ministers.
It was just getting dark, and a few carriages passed by from time to time on the road in the inner city. These carriages were all tightly covered. Occasionally, patrolling soldiers saw these carriages, but they probably didn't see them.
Li Chen's carriage stopped at Jia Xu's house, and Jia Xu was sick these days, so not many people came to visit.Although it is a high position and weight, but at this time it is empty.
Li Chen ordered someone to post a post. In this era when visiting others, one has to post a greeting card. Li Chen believes that Jia Xu will definitely meet him when he sees his greeting card.
The concierge of Jia Xu's mansion didn't ask for a card, but Li Chen walked towards the courtyard without any hesitation in his invitation.
"Boom, boom, boom." The concierge knocked lightly on the door a few times and shouted into the room: "Master, someone is here to visit."
Jia Xu is playing chess with an old friend in the inner courtyard of Jia's mansion.At this time, Jia Xu's face was full of red, and there was no sign of illness at all. It was obvious that he was just making excuses for his illness these days.
Jia Xu holds white stones, and the person opposite him holds black stones.On the chessboard, the form of the black and white pieces is just like the form of Luoyang. On the surface, it is calm, but in fact there is an undercurrent.
"Come in." Jia Xu said softly.
The concierge, Uncle Qin, handed over the greeting card in his hand, and Jia Xu was still wondering, who would visit him at this time after he had been sick for so many days.
Jia Xu opened the greeting card and looked at the two lines of characters on the card, he instantly turned livid.
Chapter 126 Jia Xu's Old Friend
"Who sent the post?" Seeing Jia Xu frowned, his old face wrinkled like egg skin, the old friend sitting opposite Jia Xu asked.
"I don't know, there is no signature on the greeting card." Jia Xu said, handing the greeting card in his hand to his old friend.
Jia Xu didn't shy away from this person at all, and handed him the greeting card in his hand without any concealment.This person took the greeting card in Jia Xu's hand and slowly opened it, only to see two lines of writing on the card.
You must die if you invest in a segment.
Ben Zhang will die.
Seeing these two lines of words, Jia Xu's old friend's face also changed in shock.Jia Xu intends to flee Luoyang today, and the two tentative locations he has chosen are Duan Yao in Huayin and Zhang Xiu in Wancheng.
If you cast Duan Yao, you will die, so it is natural to say that if Jia Xu joins Huayin Duan Yao, he must die.
Going to Zhang must die, telling Jia Xu that even Zhang Xiu who defected to Wancheng will not end well.
Why did Jia Xu and his old friend change color, because only the two of them knew about Jia Xu's plan to seek refuge with Duan Yan and Zhang Xiu, so how did the owner of this letter of worship guess Jia Xu's mind?
Among the large and small warlords in the Xiliang faction, there are big warlords like Li Que and Guo Si in Luoyang, and there are big forces like Ma Teng and Han Sui in Liangzhou.But Duan Yan and Zhang Xiu are just little-known little people at this time, how could the people outside guess that Jia Xu would join them.
It stands to reason that even if a great talent like Jia Xu took refuge in Cao Cao, a great warlord like Yuan Shao would be honored as a guest of honor.But Jia Xu did the opposite. Instead of taking refuge in a big warlord, he chose to take refuge in a small force.
This is why, this is because Jia Xu can't see clearly who the world will belong to now.A war between a big warlord and a small warlord is an annexation, but a war between a big warlord and a big warlord is life and death.
This is Jia Xu's cleverness. He is just waiting to go to the small warlord, and after the situation in the world becomes clear, he will make a final decision on who to go to.
Just like in the previous life, Jia Xu took refuge in Zhang Xiu. After Zhang Xiu lost to Cao Cao, he went to Cao Cao's command, and was reused by Cao Cao, and finally became a Taiwei.
What kind of official position is Taiwei? This is Sangong. It can be said that it is the limit position that foreign ministers can do.
Jia Xu is very smart and good at protecting himself wisely, so when he found out that his plan was seen through, Jia Xu was a little panicked.
Advertising, \app \ is really good, it's worth installing it, even Android and Apple phones support it!
With a blank sheet of paper, Jia Xu ordered to the porter, "Please come in."
Jia Xu wanted to see who the visitor was, and who could see through Jia Xu's thoughts so clearly.
Li Chen didn't bring many people to Jia's mansion, only Yu Cheng, Luo Yang and Liu Bowen.
A group of four people came down to the backyard under the guidance of the porter. Yu Chengcheng was guarding beside Li Chen, looking around vigilantly.
Li Chen is curious about the famous poisonous Jia Xu, and Jia Xu is also curious about Li Chen, the person who has seen through his mind.So, at this time, Jia Xu and one of his old friends came out to meet him.
The numbers were relative, and the atmosphere was very awkward for a while.
"Old guy, is that you?" Li Chen looked at the two people in front of him and said.
The two people in front of them are not tall, a little thin, and they look like they are only about 40 years old, with a goatee.Judging from the appearance, there is no doubt that this person is the famous poisoner Jia Xu.
What surprised Li Chen was the person next to Jia Xu. Although this person was not much different in age from Jia Xu, he was far older than Jia Xu, slightly taller than Jia Xu, and even taller in stature.
Li Chen had seen this person before, it was the storyteller in the teahouse when he first entered the city that day.
"Boy, is it you?" This person was also a little surprised when he saw Li Chen.
The storyteller was also very surprised when he saw Li Chen. After all, there are not many people who can reward a horseshoe gold for listening to a book, so he naturally has a deep impression on Li Chen.
Li Chen frowned, and his eyes flashed brightly: "How can a mere storyteller be so close to Jia Xu? From this it can be seen that this person is not ordinary. As the saying goes, like attracts like to divide people into groups, who in the Xiliang Army can match up with Jia Xu?" Jia Xu is like this."
Suddenly, a figure flashed in Li Chen's mind, but wasn't this person liquidated after Dong Zhuo's defeat, and died?
However, after thinking about it, with Jia Xu as a life-saving master as a friend, it shouldn't be difficult for this person to feign death to escape.
After figuring out the joints, Li Chen couldn't help being overjoyed, now he has another hole card in his hand.If the news that this person is alive is leaked out, then the first ones who want to kill him will be these leaders of the Xiliang Army.
"I didn't expect that Mr. Li Ruli is also here. It's really hard to find a place to get here." At this time, there were no outsiders around, and Li Chen simply called out the identity of this person.
As soon as Li Chen spoke, both Jia Xu and Li Ru froze, and after a moment of silence, Li Ru smiled and said, "Little brother, you are joking, this Li Ru has already died in the rebellion, this is a well-known fact. "
Seeing the appearance of the two of them, Li Chen became more certain about the guess in his heart, and couldn't help but "haha" in his heart.
"I don't have anyone in my mouth. If that's the case, let me try to shout Li Ru is not dead. If I can call Li Que and Guo Si, I think they will be able to tell the difference." Li Chen said with a smile .
Where does Li Ru dare to ask Li Chen to shout, if his identity is exposed, then the first ones who want to kill him are people like Li Que and Guo Si.The reason why they are able to hold the Xiliang army in their hands now is because they think that Dong Zhuo's family is dead and Dong Zhuo has no heirs.
But who is Li Ru? In addition to being Dong Zhuo's military adviser, he is also Dong Zhuo's son-in-law.Li Ru is Dong Zhuo's legal heir. If Li Ru is still alive, then it is both reasonable and reasonable for him to inherit the Xiliang Army.
