Yuan Tan stopped Cao Ang on the grounds that the two armies were fighting and did not kill the envoys, set up a banquet to entertain Jiang Gan, and summoned Xin Bi, Lu Cui and others to accompany him. The guests and hosts talked happily, but there was no shortage of temptations and traps, Jiang Gan was confident, dealt with them one by one, and talked and laughed.

While Lu Cui, Wang Yu and others were debating and fighting with Jiang Gan, Yuan Tan tilted his body, and Xin Bi leaned over knowingly, holding a wine glass, as if toasting Yuan Tan, with his back to Jiang Gan. Yuan Tan said softly: "Before my uncle died, he entrusted the future affairs to Sun Ce, and it is said that there are some conditions, one of which is to kill Cao Mengde to take revenge, but is there such a thing?" ”

"It is true. Zhang Zhongjing was also present at that time and could hear it clearly. ”

"Tell me about it."

Xin Bi showed a hint of embarrassment, and looked at him left and right. Yuan Tan rolled his eyes, guessed a few points, and laughed softly: "Among the people who my uncle asked Sun Ce to kill, there won't be a father, right?" ”

Xin Bi smiled bitterly: "Make Jun very smart, and you can guess it." ”

"Actually, it's normal, it's not hard to guess." Yuan Tan lowered his eyelids and took a sip of wine. "Are there any other conditions besides these two things?"

"The general might as well guess again."

Yuan Tan raised his eyebrows slightly, thought for a moment, and said, "Marry Yuan Heng as a wife?" ”

Simbi gave a thumbs up. "Make the king wise."

"Hehe, what's so hard to guess, Sun Ce accepted three concubines in succession, but refused to marry a wife, which is really unreasonable. Feng Fang has been a lieutenant of Sili, and his daughter is a national color, and it is more than enough to be Sun Ce's wife. My sister Yuan Quan is a virtuous woman who is one in a hundred, and she is willing to stoop to be a concubine, except for the death of her father, I really can't think of any other reason, only this reason can make Feng Fang have nothing to say, let me obey my sister's orders. ”

"yes. Sun Ce received this great favor, so he naturally had to do his best, confiscating the Cao family's property was just the beginning, and the conflict between him and the alliance leader could not be resolved, otherwise the old department of the later general would definitely not be able to accept it. Envoy, you have a long way to go. ”

Yuan Tan sighed. "It's a pity that I'm injured, otherwise I would have taken this opportunity to enter Yuzhou and relieve my father's worries, wouldn't it be happy."

"This is Sun Ce's luck, but it doesn't help, it just lets him live for a while." Xin Bi leaned closer and said in a low voice: "I have already sent someone to contact the families in Yuzhou, just wait for Sun Ce to make trouble out of control, and then cooperate with the outside and break it together." For now, let Chen Deng and Zhou Ang put more effort into trapping Sun Jian in Jiujiang and Lujiang. ”

Yuan Tan patted Xin Bi's hand. "George is my ovary. Strategize and win thousands of miles away. ”

Xu Shao got out of the car and turned to look at Pingyucheng shrouded in smoke and willows in the distance, his nose was pantothenic and his eyes were gloomy.

Xu Ming, who was standing on the side, sighed and persuaded: "Ah Weng, don't care, don't look at it, let's go." ”

Xu Shao was in a depressed mood and ignored Xu Ming's proposal. This is not a simple trip, but he is leaving Pingyu, leaving his hometown where he has lived for more than 40 years, but he doesn't know when he will be able to come back. Zhang Zhao rejected the contribution of his brother Xu Qian, and Yuan Quan rejected the generous gift of his sister-in-law Chen, and insisted on dealing with it according to the law. Having lost his official position and his influence in Shilin, it was difficult for the Xu family to turn over.

It's all because of my hesitation, I'm a sinner of the Xu family. I was not confused in my years, but I did a stupid thing that was so confused that it ruined the accumulation of generations. Let's go, even if you don't go, you won't be able to see your hometown fathers. Without the Yuedan review, I am no longer the county gongcao, and how many people still look at me in my eyes. There were many people who knew that he was going out, but they didn't see any of them.

Two lines of old tears burst out of his eyes, and Xu Shao lowered his head to prevent others from seeing his desolation. He strode down the riverbank, stepped on the pedals and got into the boat, got into the cabin, choked up and commanded the boat. The boatman untied the cable and used a penny to prop up the shore, and the boat slowly left the shore and slid towards the middle of the water.

"Xu Zijiang, please stay." A hearty chant rang out from the shore. Xu Shao heard it familiarly, but he couldn't remember who it was, so he opened the window and saw that it was Chen Dao, and he couldn't help but be a little surprised. He gave his eldest son Xu a look. Xu Mingming, he got out of the cabin, stood on the bow of the ship, and said loudly: "Captain Chen, what are you doing?" ”

Chen arched his hand. "Knowing that the virtuous father and son traveled far away, the rebellious general specially bought thin wine to see off the virtuous father and son, and asked the virtuous father and son to stay for a while."

Xu Chao subconsciously glanced at Xu Shao. Xu Shao was also a little confused. He didn't know how Sun Ce would come to see him off. He thinks that he and Sun Ce are not all the way at all, Sun Ce has already won, and he still refuses to let go, what does this mean? He was about to refuse, but when he thought that he was forced to leave his hometown because of Sun Ce, if he left without a fight at this moment, I am afraid that this breath would be held in his heart for a lifetime.

What about the winners and losers? The industry is gone, my reputation is discredited, I have nothing left, nothing to fear. Fight to the death, and vomit as fast as possible today.

Xu Shao got out of the cabin and motioned for the boatman to dock the ship. As soon as the boat was moored, there was a rush of horses' hooves on the shore, and Sun Ce appeared on the dock, surrounded by Dian Wei and some guards. Sun Ce stopped his mount, glanced at Xu Shao, who was standing at the bow of the boat, and laughed.

"Xu Zijiang, don't be so nervous, I'm just here to see him off, and I have no other intentions."

"Who says I'm nervous?" Xu Shao said as he quietly relaxed his overly clenched fists, and coughed twice weakly.

Sun Ce nodded, turned over and dismounted, and motioned for Chen Zhi and the others to stand farther away, and even Dian Wei and the others rushed to the side, leaving only Pang Tong and Liu Bin to wait. After a short time, Youyi laid out the table, set up the table, and put the wine and food on the table. Sun Ce stretched out his hand to invite, and Xu Shao was not to be outdone, and sat down calmly.

Sun Ce motioned for Liu Bin to serve the wine and took the initiative to raise the wine glass. "First sacrifice to the god of the road (road god), bless Xu Jun with a smooth journey. I can't do the send-off poem, so I drink three cups by myself. After saying that, he first sacrificed to the gods, and then drank three cups in a row.

Seeing that Sun Celi had been thoughtful for a few weeks, Xu Shao was embarrassed to turn his face, and according to the rules, he sacrificed to the gods and served another cup.

"Come, try these seasonal vegetables, after leaving Runan, you may not be able to taste the flavor of your hometown."

Xu Shao's nose was sour, and he almost burst into tears. He hurriedly raised his glass in front of him, taking the opportunity to wipe away the tears from the corners of his eyes. He didn't go out to travel, he was fleeing, and the initiator was Sun Ce in front of him. It's a terrible drink.

"However, as the saying goes, it is better to travel thousands of miles than to read thousands of books, Xu Jun may go more than 10,000 miles, increase his knowledge, and become famous in the world in the future, which can be regarded as a blessing in disguise." Sun Ce raised his glass again and said with a smile: "I wish Xu Jun the same as the master who returned from his travels and deleted poems and commentaries, started a sect, and became a generation of people to be admired by future generations." ”

Xu Shao couldn't help but sneer and sneered. "I am just a contemptible, how dare I compare with a saint. I am far away from the rivers and lakes, looking at the height of the general's temple, and my wish is enough. ”

Sun Ce smiled. "Borrow Xu Junji's words. If there is a day, I hope that no matter where Xu Jun is, he will send me a letter and pass a few words. Speaking of which, I have known Xu Jun for several months, and Xu Jun has not commented on me. ”

"The general is not afraid that I will scold you?" Xu Shao squinted at Sun Ce, the meaning of provocation was very strong, and Xu Chao on the side was frightened.

Sun Ce said lightly: "Laughing and scolding people." I may not agree with you, but I defend your right to speak to the death. Although I don't read much and have little knowledge, I also know the story that the child property does not destroy the township school, and I have heard the old saying that the mouth of the people is better than the defense of Sichuan, and I can't do stupid things that block the way of speech. He paused, and then said, "Of course, you have the right to scold me, and I also have the right to scold you, right?" ”
