It was temporarily placed in the post house by the potter.

Immediately afterwards, the potter gathered his main advisers and generals to discuss the matter.

Now Chen Deng is a scholar of Shangshuling, and the Son of Heaven was brought back to the prime minister's mansion in Pengcheng by the pottery merchants, so Chen Deng himself needed to stay in Nanchang and deal with all the affairs in the court for the pottery merchants.

Even though the pottery merchant was an independent court, the operating mechanism could not be abolished, and someone who could help take care of it needed to take care of it.

Chen Deng is the most suitable candidate in terms of ability and identity.

In this way, among the Wenchen on Pengcheng's side, it is naturally headed by Guo Jia, Lu Su, Mi Zhu, Cao Bao, and Zhao Yu.

Wang Lang was still the county guard in Huiji County and never came back, Zhang Zhao, Zhang Hong, Chen Qun and others were in Hangzhou, and they did not participate in this court meeting.

Mi Zhu was not deeply involved in military and political affairs, and Zhao Yu rarely expressed his opinions when he saw the wind and the rudder, so it was mainly the remaining three people who made remarks to the pottery merchants.

After listening to the potter's account, Cao Bao first expressed his meaning.

"Prime Minister, from the bottom of my heart, Yuan Shao was really good to the Prime Minister back then, although later the two of us fought each other, and there was a battle of Guandu during the period, but after all, the Yuan clan in Hebei is the crown of the scholar clan, if we are raising troops in Hebei, how should the Corporal clan look at us Xuzhou people in this world, this move is very risky......"

"It doesn't matter, Yuan Shao murdered the first emperor back then, and it was already intolerable to the world, and I crusaded against him, and it was justified."

The potter didn't want to have more trouble with the old system scholars like Cao Bao on this issue, so he directly denied him.

The conclusion of the potter is how to crusade against Yuan Shao.

The potter looked at Guo Jia, but Guo Jia looked directly at Lu Su.

Lu Su did not refuse, he pondered for a while, Fang said: "The Black Mountain Army was counted by Cao Cao, so it was divided, although this move gave Yuan Shao a chance to breathe, but for us, it is also an opportunity, Cao Cao dared to act like this, it must represent that he already has the intention and determination to send troops to Hebei to plot Yuan's foundation, if we delay and hesitate, Cao Cao will get a big advantage in the future, I am afraid that it will be too late to regret, now we not only have to face Yuan Shao, but also face Cao Cao, but also to compete with Cao Cao for time, the battle of Hebei, It is the most important step to change the pattern of the world, and whoever walks well will gain the initiative in the future battle between princes. ”

After listening to Lu Su's remarks, the potter nodded in agreement.

"It seems that we have quite a lot of opponents this time, not only Yuan Shao, but also Cao Cao, in addition to the Xianbei tribes and the Xiongnu in the north, they will also come to mix, plus the Black Mountain Army, it seems that Hebei will play a big game of chess."

Guo Jia said with a smile: "The battle in the north is related to the survival of the Yuan family, and it is related to the status of Cao Cao and our army in the world in the future. ”

The pottery merchant stood up, took steps back and forth in the hall, and said: "Even if I may not be able to compete for all the merits, but I must not take half a step back, since it has reached this level, then there is no need to be polite to Cao Cao and Yuan Shao, just see who can defeat whom first." ”

Guo Jia hurriedly said: "The Northern Expedition has been going on for a long time, and it is difficult to get out, on the southern side, although Liu Biao is newly defeated, it must not be prevented, and it needs to be properly arranged." ”

What Guo Jia said is indeed a key point, even if Liu Biao was defeated by Tao Shang some time ago, but the power of the Sanliu Group is still huge, for such an enemy, even if Tao Ying and Chen Deng and others are in Nanchang, it is not guaranteed.

Therefore, Xuzhou, Jinling City, Nanchang City and other places must leave enough soldiers and horses.

"Then according to Fengxiao's opinion, how should Tao be deployed for this trip to Hebei?"

Guo Jia arched his hand and said: "Concentrate 100,000 elite soldiers and horses, go north to Qingzhou, first take Nanpi as the foundation, and then go west to Xutu Jizhou." ”

……

That night, the pottery merchant was in the mansion, and the two ladies Diao Chan and Mi Zhen coaxed Tao Lin and Liu Xi to sleep, and then took advantage of the night to come to the courtyard of the Prime Minister's Mansion to discuss the future together.

"The Great War in Hebei is imminent, and there will be great changes in the world within a few years, and our Jinling Army must take advantage of this opportunity to obtain the greatest benefits...... Hebei is a vast land, and all parties are mixed, I will go this time, maybe I will stay for a long time, you have to take good care of Xiao Xiao and Xi'er, this family depends on you. ”

Diao Chan and Mi Zhen looked at each other worriedly.

When I was young, I listened to Diao Chan say: "Taking care of the two children is the responsibility of the concubine, and I should do it, but Yuan Shao of Hebei Province is the gate of the three princes of the fourth world, and the head of the gate valve in the world, even if you defeat him in Guandu, it is not easy to eradicate it?" ”

Mi Zhen was also very worried: "Husband, is this matter too risky?" ”

The potter also knew that this matter was not easy.

According to what he knew in later generations, after the Battle of Guandu, Cao Cao pacified the four states with a lot of effort, with a history of nearly seven years, and he even wanted to give up several times in the middle.

And this is still in the case of civil strife in which the Yuan brothers attacked each other.

The fundamental reason is that strength is only one aspect, and the most important thing is that the Yuan clan is the head of the world's scholars, and its influence is too deep, with this influence, the political resources of the entire Han Dynasty are inexhaustible for the Yuan clan.

Although Hebei is in chaos now, the potters and Cao Cao are not allies at the moment, and the parties are fighting, and it is still unknown who will kill the deer.

But even so, what should be done has to be done, if you don't follow the general trend, empty wait-and-see, sooner or later you will be the one who will suffer losses.

The potter smiled and grabbed the hands of the two ladies with his two hands, and said: "Forget it, let's not talk about these disappointments, seeing that I am about to go to Hebei, I might as well take advantage of this beautiful day tonight, and ask the two ladies to help me add one or two small potters?" Otherwise, there is only one child in this house, and it will be too lonely. ”

The potter and Mi Zhen blushed at the same time.

Diao Chan took a sip lightly and said, "Phew, I am also a prime minister, why is it not doing justice like this?" ”

The potter smiled slightly and said, "What can I do?" The prime minister is also a human being, and he also has all kinds of small needs, besides, we are all members of the Tao family, and naturally we also have the heavy responsibility of passing incense for the Tao family, what do you want! ”

Diao Chan giggled and said, "Really? According to the concubine's body, it is not only my sister Zhen'er who can pass incense to the Tao family, right? You took the opportunity to take the Son of Heaven into the mansion and brought in three women, one more charming than the other, did you bring them back as decorations? ”

The potter was stunned when he heard this.

Then he reacted suddenly, Diao Chan was talking about Yuan Wan, Mrs. Feng, and Lu Lingqi.

Do you mean anything to these three women?

Truth be told, it's certainly impossible to be uninteresting.

Yuan Wan is smart and beautiful.

Lu Lingqi is tall, she wants breasts and breasts, and she wants her ass to have an ass.

Mrs. Feng is a natural bewitching stunner.

What man sees these three and doesn't start to think carefully?

Unless you are blind.

The potter is also a man, and of course he is among them.

But if there are ideas, there are ideas, and whether or not you can say them is another matter.

"No, not the slightest idea." The potter swore and patted his chest and said, "For my husband, I dare to use my noble character to guarantee!" ”

The potter and his two wives didn't notice that behind the stone mountain in the garden not far away, Yuan Wan, who happened to be passing by, heard this, and hammered the stone on the rockery with her hand, almost slapping her hand to bleed.
