Treacherous ministers have deep routines

There was a "clap" from the curtain of the camp tent, and someone came in from the outside.

Jia Xu was holding a wooden tray with an earcup on it, and walked in from outside the tent.

As soon as he walked in, he saw Xia Yuanyun in black armor and awe-inspiring military uniform, writing documents at the desk, frowning slightly, which was quite different from his usual honest and simple appearance.

As soon as Jia Xu came in, Xia Yuanyun heard the movement, and immediately raised his head. Seeing that it was Jia Xu, a relaxed smile appeared on his face, and he closed the document in his hand with a snap, and quickly stood up to meet him. Said: "Mr. Wenhe, why are you here?"

Jia Xu came over with the tray, put the earcup on the table, smiled, and said very gently: "Isn't it because I haven't seen General Xiahou these days?"

Xia Yuanyun laughed immediately, scratched the back of his head, and said, "Yes, these days are really busy."

Jia Xu said, "No matter how busy you are, you must pay attention to your body."

As he spoke, he raised the earcup and gave it to Xia Yuanyun. Xia Yuanyun didn't ask what it was, and drank it all in one gulp. He clicked his tongue bitterly and said, "It's so bitter!"

Jia Xu said with a smile: "To drive out the cold, General Xiahou sits in the tent every day to review documents, and the cold will inevitably penetrate his bones. Now he is young and not afraid of these things. If he gets old in the future, he must be guilty. It is better to be early." Pay attention."

Xia Yuanyun smiled and said, "Thank you, Mr. Wen He."

Jia Xu brought medicinal wine to dispel the cold, but she didn't leave. Instead, she put the tray aside and said casually, "What are you busy with? You are very tired, day and night."

Xia Yuanyun said: "It's nothing, it's just what Mr. Wen He said a few days ago about the matter between Yuan Shao, governor of Bohai Sea, and Kong Ni, governor of Yuzhou."

A few days ago, Jia Xu went to see Wei Man on purpose, and wanted Wei Man to inform Kong Ni of Yuan Shao's intention to assassinate Kong Ni, but Wei Man did not agree, thinking that such a move would be tantamount to causing internal strife. Taking advantage of the loophole, it will only be a painful ending for the enemy and the quick relative.

But if this matter is not contained, Yuan Shao will definitely successfully assassinate Kong Ni, and then rob Yuzhou soldiers and horses. After Yuan Shao has enough troops, the first one who wants to take revenge must be Wei Man.

Wei Man also needs to think about himself.

So he handed over this matter to Xia Yuanyun, and asked Xia Yuanyun to beat Yuan Shao, so that Yuan Shao would not act rashly.

Xia Yuanyun didn't notice anything unusual, Jia Xu asked him, and he said it directly, saying: "No, the alliance is about to arrive, and the chiefs of the county guards from all over the country have arrived, and they will build an altar to salute immediately, my lord is afraid of Yuan Shao. If you make a fuss, ask me to beat it. These days, I go to Yuan Ying every two days, and I went there again today, and I came back at dusk, and Mr. Cheng came here."

Mr. Wen He said calmly: "Yuan Shao... has he restrained himself over there? Are you planning to assassinate the governor of Yuzhou?"

Xia Yuanyun said with a smile: "Yuan Rang went to Yuan Ying twice in three days, even though Yuan Shao had twelve guts, Yuan Shao also took away eleven, and for the time being, only one gut was left in his chest. Maybe it’s going its own way? For the time being, I don’t intend to assassinate the governor of Yuzhou, and I sent a lot of things over, it seems that I want to keep my mouth shut.”

As he was talking, a soldier came in to report back, cupped his hands and said, "General, Yuan Shao, the prefect of Bohai Sea, has sent another five carts of grain and five carts of medicinal herbs."

Xia Yuanyun stood up and walked to the door of the tent, "Wow!" The curtain was opened with a sound, and Jia Xu also came over, and happened to see ten carts outside, continuously transported into Wei Man's camp, with Yuan Shao stuck on them. It turned out that the military flag was the "hush money" sent by Yuan Shao.

Yuan Shao knew that Zhang Rang loved medicinal herbs, and Wei Man always attached great importance to Zhang Rang, so he ordered five carts of medicinal materials to be sent over.

When Jia Xu saw it, she couldn't help but squinted her eyes, but didn't speak.

Xia Yuanyun glanced outside, and then said to the soldiers: "The grain and grass will be collected in the granary, and the medicinal materials will be sent to Mr. Changqiu."

"Yes, humble duty!"

The soldiers quickly left the camp.

For a while, only Jia Xu and Xia Yuanyun were left in the camp.

Jia Xu smiled and said: "It seems that Yuan Gong was really scared this time, and sent so many things."

Xia Yuanyun frowned, and said: "Yuan Shao did have some scruples, if the news that he wanted to assassinate the governor of Yuzhou got out, I'm afraid Yuan Shao would have no chance of being the leader of the alliance in this life, but... I'm afraid Yuan Shao didn't really give up. The idea of ​​assassinating the governor of Yuzhou is just a plan to delay the attack."

Xia Yuanyun said, sighed, seemed to feel a little tired, and rubbed his forehead.

Jia Xu turned his gaze and said, "General Xiahou doesn't have to worry too much. Yuan Gong does things to save face. General Xiahou only needs to grasp this point so that he can check and balance Yuan Gong."

Xia Yuanyun just listened, and smirked at Jia Xu, and said, "Yes, Mr. Wen He is very kind to Yuan Rang!"

When Jia Xu heard this, his eyes were a little erratic, but he soon calmed down, and said softly, "General Xiahou, it's already night. These days, General Xiahou is busy with political affairs, and he will meet with the alliance soon. There is less rest, so I'd better go to bed soon." Come on, don't tire yourself out."

Xia Yuanyun nodded and said, "Yes, thank you, Mr. Wen He, for reminding me."

As he spoke, he looked at Jia Xu. Jia Xu wanted to leave, but when he reached the door of the camp, he turned around suddenly, smiled at Xia Yuanyun, and said, "General Xiahou, I don't know... Wenhe tonight." Can I stay with General Xiahou?"

"Stay here...with me."

Xia Yuanyun's voice gradually became hoarse while he was talking, and suddenly he strode over, "Wow!" There was a soft sound of his clothes, and Jia Xu was picked up in a hug.

"Bang!", the tray in Jia Xu's hand fell to the ground and burst open.

The vacant earcup above also rolled to the ground, but after hearing a sound of "Dangdangdang... Gulululu—" the earcup fell to the ground, bounced up, fell to the ground again, and rolled to the corner of the tent to go.

Xia Yuanyun said hoarsely: "If Mister Wenhe stays here today, Yuan Rang can rest well, but Mister..."

Hearing him speak like this, Mr. Wen He's fair face couldn't help turning red, but he stretched out his hand to hold Xia Yuanyun, his voice was extremely gentle, like catkins blowing in the wind, and said, "I hope General Xia Hou can rest well, what does Wen He care about?" Woolen cloth?"

Xia Yuanyun narrowed his eyes, breathed heavily, and said, "Mr. Wen He asked for this."

Zhang Rang was squatting on the empty field of the camp, holding the little wolf cub in his arms, and was counting the five boxes of medicinal materials sent by Yuan Shao.

At that time, the sun had already set, and bonfires were lit all around. Zhang Rang lightly twisted a pinch of herbs and sniffed them gently. With a small nose, he sniffed hard.

"Ooooooooooo!!"

Zhang Rang was inspecting the medicinal materials. At this moment, the little wolf cub suddenly roared like crazy. Zhang Rang looked up and saw that Wei Man was approaching from a distance. When he got closer, the little wolf cub immediately followed him. Like "beating chicken blood", he roared crazily.

Wei Man walked over, squatted beside Zhang Rang, and said, "What are you doing?"

Zhang Rang put the medicinal materials in his hand back into the box and said, "Check the medicinal materials."

Wei Man smiled and said: "Yes, the medicinal materials given by the old man Yuan Shao need to be checked carefully, I am afraid there is something tricky in it."

As he was talking, the little wolf cub yelled at Wei Man again, "Aoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo"

Zhang Rang tried to comfort the little wolf cub twice, but it didn't work. Wei Manbian said to Zhang Rang with a shy face, "Look, our unreasonable family likes me the most. As soon as I come, it likes it very much."

Zhang Rang looked down at the little wolf cub who was roaring wildly, and said, "Is this Huanxin?"

Wei Man's expression didn't change, and he said very honestly: "Of course, you can see how happy it is, having fun."

The two of them were talking when they heard a strange sound coming from Xia Yuanyun's tent, faintly, and followed the night wind to the ears of Zhang Rang and Wei Man.

When Wei Man heard this, he couldn't help shaking his head, looked at Xia Yuanyun's tent with very ambiguous eyes, and said to Zhang Rang, "Let's go."

Zhang Rang did not leave, but looked at Xia Yuanyun's tent very curiously. If it wasn't for the curtains hanging on the tent, Zhang Rang seemed to be going in to see what happened.

Zhang Rang said curiously: "Rang Wen Wenhe's voice is quite miserable. Is that thing really comfortable?"

Wei Man: "..."

Although Wei Man has a thick skin, he really doesn't want to squat with Zhang Rang at the door of other people's tents, talking about other people's private affairs, it really sounds like a bad guy...

Mr. Wen He was tossed hard, because Xia Yuanyun was busy going to Yuan Shao's affairs these days, and he hadn't seen Mr. Wen He for several days, and Mr. Wen He took the initiative to stay in Xia Yuanyun's camp for the night. Xia Yuanyun will not let him go.

Mr. Wen He half-closed his eyes, as if he had fainted, with sweat rolling on his forehead, Xia Yuanyun had lost his composure, but now he came to his senses, he felt that he was too rude, so he tucked the corner of the quilt for Mr. Wen He, Wiping his sweat lightly, he also lay down and held Mr. Wen He in his arms.

It didn't take long for the two people to stop, when suddenly there was a sound outside the tent, Xia Yuanyun immediately sat up vigilantly, walked to the tent door, and said, "What's the matter?"

A soldier's voice said softly: "General, my lord has an invitation. He said that there is an urgent matter to discuss with the general."

Upon hearing this, Xia Yuanyun said, "I see, you step back and say that Yuan Rang will be here soon."

The soldier quickly retreated, and Xia Yuanyun came back from the outside, walked to the edge of the couch, patted Mr. Wenhe on the shoulder, and said in a low voice, "Sir? Sir, Yuan Rang needs to go out for something." ,gentlemen?"

Xia Yuanyun called three times. Mr. Wen He seemed to be in a deep sleep, and he didn't wake up. He kept his eyes closed, the corners of his eyes were red, and he was resting very tiredly.

Xia Yuanyun saw it, and didn't say anything more, just grabbed the clothes next to him and put it on, and tucked the quilt tighter for Mr. Wen He again, lowered his head and kissed Mr. Wen He's forehead, then turned around and left. tent.

"Wow!" With a sound, Xia Yuanyun gently put down the curtain of the camp tent, and quickly walked towards the big tent of the shogunate.

Following Xia Yuanyun's walking footsteps, there was no sound in the dark tent.

At this moment, Mr. Wen He, who was lying on the couch with a haggard face and sleeping soundly, suddenly opened his eyes.

In the dim tent, Mr. Wen He's eyes were exceptionally bright. Although there were traces of haggard red in the corners of his eyes, there was no trace of chaos or sleepiness in his bright black eyes...
