Chapter 1135: Cao Cao's Messenger

"Cao Gong led the main force and besieged the city head-on!" Holding his fists and arching at Cao Cao, Xun You said to him: "There are two other generals, each leading an army, and wait until the flank of the Qin army is completed, and then kill the Qin army from behind!" ”

Leaning on the cover, Cao Cao was silent for a moment before nodding and saying, "So according to Gongda's words!" ”

Guo Jia was killed, Cao Cao led the army to attack Xudu, and Yuan Tan, who escaped from Yecheng in Hebei, far away from Xudu, was sitting upright in the front hall of the Liyang official mansion at this time.

Guo Tu, who fled to Liyang with Yuan Tan, was kneeling and sitting on the side, but in the middle of the hall, there was still a person standing.

This person is not someone else, it is the one who supported Yuan Shang to inherit Hebei's Fengji.

Clenching his fists and bowing, Feng Ji peeked at Yuan Tan, whose face was as cold as water, and his expression was also calm.

Yuan Tan, who was kneeling in the first seat, looked at Feng Ji coldly, and the scene was silent for a while.

"Mr. Feng is here, isn't it just to be a lobbyist for Yuan Shang?" Staring at Feng Ji and looking at it for a long time, Yuan Tan pouted and said, "What is the fate of my father, Mr. is afraid that he will know better than so." ”

Yuan Tan unabashedly said about Yuan Shao's death, but Feng Ji's face did not change at all, and he bowed to him with his fists and said: "Xian Si Gongzi obviously listened to the villain's slander, so he said this. Before Duke Yuan left, it was really obvious that Gongzi Fu inherited Hebei, and there were many people who testified to this matter, could it be that Gongzi didn't believe in Gong Yuan? ”

Feng Ji planted all the things he did with the judge that day on the deceased Yuan Shao, and he was stunned when Yuan Tan said it, but he couldn't find words to refute it.

As Yuan Shao's son, Yuan Tan would never say that he had doubts about Yuan Shao's death.

Guo Tu, who was also sitting in the hall, did not have so many scruples.

As soon as Feng Ji's words fell, Guo Tu sneered twice.

Hearing Guo Tu sneer, Feng Ji turned his head to look at him, and asked with the same cold smile: "Does the public have something to say?" ”

"There's more to say!" Twisting the beard on his chin, Guo Tu looked up at Feng Ji who was standing in the hall and said: "When Yuan Gong died, only Yuan Tu and Zhengnan were present at that time, as for who was written on the testament, I am afraid that only the two of you know!" ”

"Duke Yuan's last life, Xian Si Gongzi also saw it with his own eyes!" Looking at Guo Tu, Feng Ji said: "Could it be that Fei Fei Gong thinks that a certain and Zhengnan will make a move in front of the son of Xiansi, ignoring the wisdom of the son?" ”

This sentence, Feng Ji asked is extremely tricky.

If Guo Tu said that he had changed his life with the judge, it would undoubtedly be saying that Yuan Tan was not thinking enough.

If you don't say it, it is an admission that there is no problem with the will, and invisibly, it is also an admission that Yuan Shang's inheritance of Hebei is justified.

Feng Ji said a word, and Guo Tu asked with his mouth open, but he didn't figure out how to respond for a while.

Yuan Tan on the side saw Guo Tu's embarrassed face, knowing that he was being asked by Feng Ji, waved his hand, and said, "That's it, that's it!" This matter has been overturned, since Xianfu has won Hebei, as a brother, he should also be supported! ”

"Xiansi Gongzi Gaoyi!" Holding his fists and bowing, Feng Ji said to Yuan Tan: "The son of Xianfu ordered a certain to come, one is to reconcile with the son, and the other is to assist the son to fight against the Cao thief!" ”

After staring at Feng Ji for a while, Yuan Tancai said with a smile: "With Mr. to help, a certain is like a tiger with wings......"

"Enlightened Childe!" Before Yuan Tan finished speaking, a guard's voice came from outside the door of the front hall: "Cao Cao sent a messenger to ask to see Gongzi!" ”

Hearing that Cao Cao had sent an envoy, Yuan Tan's brows furrowed slightly, and he glanced at each other with Feng Ji and Guo Tu, and then said to the guards outside the hall: "Call Cao Cao's envoy to come in and see each other!" ”

The guard answered, and turned to leave.

After a while, a person walked into the hall.

This man was about forty years old, and he had a long white flutter on his chin, and he knew at a glance that he must be a very shrewd man.

Entering the hall, this person first glanced at Guo Tu and Feng Ji on the side, then bowed with his fists, saluted Yuan Tan who was sitting on the top and said: "A certain person came to see the son of Xiansi on the order of Duke Cao, but he had something important to discuss with the son!" ”

Knowing that Cao Cao sent an envoy, Yuan Tan was already a little vigilant, and when the person came to speak, he said coldly: "What's the matter with the public, just come!" ”

Glancing at Guo Tu and Feng Ji on the side again, seeing that Yuan Tan did not mean to separate the two, Cao Cao's envoy spoke: "When Cao Gong heard that Yuan Gong had passed away, he was very sad in his heart, and he specially ordered a certain person to come to mourn!" ”

"Tribute?" As soon as the envoy finished speaking, Yuan Tan sneered and said: "I'm afraid that I came to the wrong realm, my father passed away in Yecheng, even if it is in the earth, it is also in Yecheng, how did the prince run to Liyang to mourn?" ”

"The lord of Hebei is now in Liyang, and he wants to go to Liyang to mourn!" To Yuan Tan's surprise, the person who came was asked by him, not only was he not a little busy, but he said calmly: "I went to Yecheng, who did I mourn Yuan Gong to?" ”

When the envoy said this, the expressions on the faces of the people in the hall were unusually strange.

Yuan Tan's face showed surprise and confusion, while Guo Tu had a strange face, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The most dramatic look is Feng Ji.

After listening to the envoy's words, the corners of Feng Ji's mouth were slightly raised, first looking at the envoy, and then at Yuan Tan, with a strange smile on his face.

Turning his head to look at Feng Ji and finding the smile on his face, Yuan Tan snorted coldly and said to the envoy sent by Cao Cao: "In the first battle of Guandu, Cao Cao killed tens of thousands of Hebei men, and in the first battle of Cangting, my Hebei army also lost most of it, but now I let you come to Liyang and say these nonsense words, is it to instigate my brother to discord?" Take the opportunity to occupy Hebei? ”

was stunned for a moment by Yuan Tan's question, and then the envoy continued: "Gongzi is the eldest son of Duke Yuan, in the world, the inheritance of the father's generation, is inherited by the eldest son, Gong Cao knows such a truth, could it be that Gongzi doesn't understand?" ”

"Tell me, why are you here?" Since Feng Ji was beside him, Yuan Tan also didn't want to talk to the envoy sent by Cao Cao, so he urged him.

If the envoy was a little more careful at this time, he would find that Feng Ji was not Yuan Tan's staff.

But this person's attention is on Yuan Tan, where is there too much leisure to distinguish who Guo Tu and Feng Ji on the side are Yuan Tan's.

Maintaining a posture of clenching his fists and bowing, the envoy said to Yuan Tan: "Duke Cao ordered a certain to come, in addition to mourning Duke Yuan, there is also one more matter, to discuss with Gongzi!" ”

Having said this, the envoy also glanced at Guo Tu and Feng Ji on the side.

Discussing with Yuan Tan to jointly crusade against Yuan Shang, after all, it was to instigate discord within the Yuan brothers, and the envoy also knew that if there were too many people who heard about it on the spot, it would not be beautiful, and looking at Guo Tu and Feng Ji, it was nothing more than wanting Yuan Tan to separate the two.

Before the envoy could tell Cao Cao's intentions, Yuan Tan had already guessed what Cao Cao wanted to do.

He didn't send Guo Tu and Feng Ji outside.

The words have already been said to this point, if Feng Ji is spent, the matter will reach Yuan Shang's ears, whether he unites with Cao Cao or not, it will also cause Yuan Shang's jealousy.

Once he and Yuan Shang start a war, Cao Cao, who has long been eyeing Hebei, will definitely have an opportunity.

I hated Yuan Shang for occupying Hebei in my heart, but Yuan Tan also knew that Yuan Shang occupied Hebei, and this Hebei was still their Yuan family after all.

If Cao Cao takes advantage of it, I'm afraid the whole of Hebei will have to change its surname to Cao!

Seeing the envoy's gaze glancing at Feng Ji and Guo Tu, Yuan Tan said to him: "These two are confidants, there is no need to have too many scruples, if you have something to say!" ”

This sentence is not so much to Cao Cao's envoy, but to Feng Ji.

Sure enough, after Yuan Tan said this, the look on Feng Ji's face was much calmer than Fang Yi.

Feng Ji was not in a hurry to stop Cao Cao's envoy from speaking, and stopping it at this time would make Yuan Tan think that Yuan Shang was worried that he was allied with Cao Cao.

Instead of making Yuan Tan scrupled, it is better to listen to what Cao Cao's envoy said, and then see Yuan Tan's reaction.

Yuan Tan said that Feng Ji and Guo Tu were his henchmen, and Cao Cao's envoy relieved his heart and said to him: "Gongzi was born as the eldest son of Duke Yuan, and he should inherit Hebei. Cao Gong expected that Yuan Gong's last life that day must be changed by the villain! ”

This sentence just confirms Guo Tu's earlier expectations.

Hearing the envoy's words, Yuan Tan turned his head intentionally or unintentionally to glance at Feng Ji who was sitting on the side, wanting to see something from his face.

But Feng Ji was calm and relaxed, as if he had no intention of refuting Cao Cao's envoy.

Feng Ji's calm and relaxed mood made Yuan Tan not much sure about this kind of speculation, and turned his head to look at Guo Tu on the side.

After glancing at each other with Yuan Tan, Guo Tu snorted coldly and said to Cao Cao's envoy: "Cao Cao's plot to Hebei is not a day. Yuan Gong's funeral day was just the fulfillment of Cao Cao's wish! But now it is people who come to instigate the son in the name of mourning, and I really have no one in Hebei! ”

"What are you talking about, sir?" Before Guo Tu's words fell, the envoy opened his mouth to argue: "Duke Cao and Duke Yuan were ministers of the same palace in the past, and when they crusaded against Dong Zhuo, the second duke was still an ally. In the battle of Guandu, it was Yuan Gong who took the lead, and Cao Gong had no choice but to fight back! As for Cangting, it was Yuan Gong who wanted to take advantage of the heavy snow and cold winter to seize Chen Liu, and then put Cao Gong to death! In order to protect himself, Cao Gong sent troops to meet the battle, was it wrong? ”

The envoy's words were reasonable, but Guo Tu was stunned.

"What a pair of sharp teeth!" Guo Tu was speechless when he was asked by the envoy, but Yuan Tan sneered and said to him: "Guandu, Cangting, Cao Cao is just attacking our army, why did he send troops to Yecheng afterwards, intending to capture Yecheng?" If Cao Cao has no intention of occupying Hebei, does the public believe it? ”
